As to Wearing whiskers.

Two fallacfes are in vogue regarding
the whisker question. One is that thin
faced man should support side whiskers
10 widen his face; the other that a round
faced fat man should favor long chip
whlskers 10 lengthen his face Both are
adopted on the counter action and antidote
principle, but are wrong as wrong can
be 4 man with a sharp chin exposed is
thin and appears thin in spite of his
Burnsides. And a moon shaped man
gives himself humorous and clownish
appearance by wearing a long, sharp tuft
on his chin. The principle of conformity
should be observed or wholesale change
made. A thin man, for instance, should
not wear chin whiskers, no whiskers at
all or q beard. He no more looks well
with side whiskers and peaked chin than
he would 10 stuff his chest and not his
cheeks and calves. To look well he must
be uniformly and consistently thin, or he
may modify it by complete beard. A
fat man should be smooth faced or wear
universal whiskers pretty closely cropped.
The well proportional and moderately
full faced man may vary the style and
quantity of his vhiskers with impunity so
far Is the thin or broad appearance is con-
cerned. \ very short beard gives an
animal look; if very large it indicates van
iJy or crankiness. Graphic.

Joking with q Powder House.

There was a fall of rock at one of the tun-
nels on the Baltimore and Ohio railroad and
our train was detained at a flag station for
three or four hours. The passengers strolled
about to pass the time away, and a dozen Of
us had gone down the track half mile
toward a quarry when we came 10 a rough
looking shanty erected about 200 feet from
the track and partly hidden by great rocks
There was n small piece Of red cardboard I'm
sight on the building, hut if IL had any print
ing writing on it we couldn't see from
that distance. A passenger pulled out his
revolver and observed;
Il think l can chip that card, though it's a
pretty long shot"
He fired and missed it. Then a second
pulled his revolver and fired and hit the cor
of the card. Then out came seven or
eight weapons and there was a general blaz-
ing away for at least ten minutes, when the
card fell. We had Just put up our pistols
when a man came running up from tho
quarry. waving his hat and yelling: "Stop,
stop" When he reached us he was out of
breath and pale as a ghost.
Nv what were you shooting at :" he gasped.
At red card on that shanty.r
He beckoned for us to follow and led the
way to the house and opened the door. The
place contained nineteen Kegs of blasting
powder and $50 pounds of nitro glycerine,
and some Of our bullets had "barkedn two or
